Write a letter to the senators or whoever that one of their TARP banks is forcing customers to close their accounts.

At 13, you should be out playing baseball and not roll searching. Your youth should be spent with friends and family. It's summer and there is lots of fun to be had. Leave to roll searching to the older folks.

I wish I had the money for roll searching at 13. Could have retired alot earlier.

I believe this whole thing is the result of a few BAD managers, both branch and vault tellers. I used to do all my business at one branch until a couple month ago. The vault teller informed me she would have to charge 9 bucks per box; so I go 2 miles down the road to the same bank, different branch, and they have no problem ordering boxes of halves. One dump bank I use I have only ONE CD in, and for the most part they have no problem.

These people need to wake up and SMILE and be thankful they have a job!

For many 13 year olds, and some even younger, searching rolls and enjoying coins IS fun! Way to discourage future coin collectors, in a hobby that is already shifting toward an older average age! This hobby NEEDS the new blood, and I for one am thrilled when I am at a coin show and I see a youngster taking a high amount of interest in this hobby. The last show I attended I witnessed a youngster probably around 10-13 looking at Large Cents with his dad. It was obvious the dad was the observer and the child was the hobbyist. Please, don't discourage the young; there is plenty of time to go out and play baseball and all and still enjoy this hobby!

Hey, just to let you know I'm thirteen but I play football, and basketball and my family is always going on vacation and spending time with eachother. Looking through rolls is just something I like to do on rainy days or when I have free time, plus I love searching rolls because I feel like each roll is a lotto ticket, u might win, u might lose

Exactly! (coming from the ranks of the unemployed)

It's better than the lotto! The only way you can lose roll searching is if a roll is short...and it doesn't happen that often.

Ya know...the morons at SunTrust can't even tell ya! They informed me that it costs them to ship the coins! I ask how much?...I'll pay it! (to get them to continue ordering halves for me) "I Don't Know" was the managers reply! When I asked the General manager the same question and told him I would pay it, his response was....."We don't have any way to charge the customer"! Can you imagine this?


I'm surprised that they didn't offer to let you open a small business account instead of a personal account... SB accounts generally charge a higher monthly fee, and often a fee per order of rolled coins, but they're available. Can't run a retail store without change.

You must have annoyed the manager by dragging him away from... whatever it is that bank managers do all day.

If I didnt have coins I would probably be in jail or a drug lord or something in that nature.
Thank goodness I have my coins.

all that stuff about being too young to roll search, well I gotta tell ya. Do what makes you happy, just don't break any laws cause when you do, nowadays you'll be in the system forever. Live like you only have one life. Got it? Enjoy it, sometimes they're way too short.
